Block apps on a schedule, add time or open limits, and lock rules to prevent edits. I built it to help me spend more time outside staring at grass, like the picture below. +Some of the design principles of OpenAppLock: + +- Completely offline, no account needed, nothing is tracked +- The app is meant to sit in the *background* of your phone + - You're meant to *not* use it, along with using your phone less + - Set the rules once, and let the app work +- Future considerations + - Integrate nature as part of the app design? + I worked with the different Apple screen time APIs to build the features in a privacy-preserving way.
